UN-INSPIRED (UN Peace Prize)

THE United Nations — desperately in need of some positive spin — is considering a ploy to steal some of the Norwegian Nobel thunder by launching its own annual peace prize. It doesn't hurt that the highly politicized Nobel Peace Prize has been bestowed to such unpeaceful types as Yasser Arafat and appeasers like Jimmy Carter.

"In the face of widespread corruption in Iraq's oil-for-food program, weapons proliferation and terrorism, it strikes one as both tone-deaf and feckless of them even to have that on the table."

They can't be serious. ROFL With all the decades of corruption and their obvious bias, does anyone think they can pull this off?

And the award goes to Scott Ritter.

Pervis the (Baathist) Pedophile sez:

Mr. Ritter is a personal hero of mine.

UN Arms (and Legs) Inspectors need love too.

I suspect that Mr. Ritter is a personal hero of MANY working for the UN:

Maybe they can give it to Hamas, or Islamic Jihad.

For that matter, they'll probably give it to Tim McVeigh posthoumusly.

F*** the UN and the horse they rode in on.

Didn't he receive the Iraqi equivalent of the Medal of Freedom?

What do they call that honor in a Baathist dictatorship, anyway?

And just whose money are those expletives-deleted going to use?!
